This friend of a friend is wanting to get rid of her 240. not sure if its DOHC or not. She said she'll get rid of it for $1200 and she just bought it a few months ago. I'll let yous guys know how it goes.

BTW - finished the motor swap on my lude (blew up last one) and it runs!! w000t for me

its manual. not sure of the year/# cams i think it has about 150k on it and about 1k on the clutch.

if it has SOHC, im gettin an SR20DETif it has DOHC and good compression, i might just turbo it, else i'll get an SR20DET.

A friend of mine had an s14 with 155k and turboed it. it lasted till 180k when subzero temps leaned him out while runnin 11 psi (stock motor, stock injectors; just an FMU and pump) and it died.

ive done two motor...wait.. 3 motor swaps in the past couple months 2 hondas and 1 volvo. Hope SR20DET isnt much harder. Of course, id get a full front clip :)

Its hard to see in the crappy pic, but the paint is wrecked beyond repair. Its getting a dark gray paintjob after the SR & bodywork :)

BTW - i had to drive about an hour to get to it, and let my buddy drive it home while i followed in my lude. we had a friendy 'speed competition' on an open stretch of highway and i only pulled on him a little, and the KA has 170k on it

the HUD thing is kinda neat. oh yeah, my buddy drifted it going about 60. he's a nut
